I’ve worked in the apparel industry for 12 years. This group is one of the most talented I’ve worked with. They work hard to bring your design vision to life. The patternmaker, Gery, is probably the best I’ve ever worked with. His background in men’s tailoring, as well as design, means that his patternmaking skills are those of a true artist (and there really is an art to achieving beautiful fit in a garment). The sewing team also goes above and beyond to meet our deadlines, and the garments are always sewn perfectly. I would not work with anyone else but TEG at this point.

Sarah Armendariz

I have been working with TEG for 4 years. They are experts in all areas of the production process. My collection is very detailed oriented and Gery, the master pattern maker is fantastic to work with. The fabrics I use are the signature of my brand but I must say the first comments are usually focusing on the quality. Jennifer has created a gem of a company.

Jan Whittingham

We have been working with TEG over the past few years and have been really happy with our experience. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with the entire team there, specifically, Gery, Shannon, Kakuri, and Sam. They have proven to be invaluable resource for us and have really helped us grow both as a brand and a business. The quality of their work is a given but we have been equally impressed by the fact that they have proven to be true business partners- and that has been invaluable.
